Condolence from Golf family on October 25th, 2021 7:20 PM

Lina, Tacey, Tom and Tina,
Your father was very much admired by the Golf family. A very respectful, sincere and kind man. We are forever thankful for his thoughtfulness when we lost our dad Vinko ( Vince) , Rajko and our Mom ( who adored his work ethics and kindness). I Jenny will remember him always as being that father figure type to me on the construction site who would always say “make sure you go to school and not sand for the rest of your life” (true story).
Hold on tight, to lose a parent is a difficult journey that only the passing of time can heal. Think of him in life, close your eyes and you will find him in your heart. YOU will meet again.
